Give GOD the glory because He is worthy.
I don't know about you, but when I think about where I am coming from and where I am today, I seriously have a lot to give GOD the glory for.
I remember when I used to ride my bicycle over 16KM to work and 16KM back home, because my salary at that time wasn't enough to take the taxi and meet my demands.
I was living in a one bedroom with my mom up to the age of 29.
Of course she told me many times to leave and find a place for myself.
I continue to give GOD the glory through it all and trust Him for a breakthrough.
I found an apartment next door to my mom's. I left my mom's place and rented it.
However, I was giving the landlady almost all my salary to keep the room, so I packed my things and went back to my mom's.
Those days were really challenging but you know what; I didn't stop giving GOD the glory.
I was both embarrassed and discouraged upon returning to mommy's place,everything was all good until, after a few days, she wanted me back out of her place.
In the midst of all of this I was very much involved at church; I preached the gospel, I sang on the choir, I played the drum and I evangelized God's Word to win souls for His Kingdom.
Today, I own my own house, I drive my own car, I have a darling wife, I have two amazing daughters and I now work for a company who pays 5 times what I used to get at my previous job.
What am I trying to say here?
While I was going through my struggles and my heartache and pain, I gave GOD the glory.
I am not saying that the struggles didn't made me discouraged at times. They did.
But I remembered the words of Job while he was going through his trials and sufferings...
he said: "Thou He slay me, yet will I trust in Him." {Job 13:15}
Those words kept me. I would meditate upon them while I was upon my bed at nights and in the early mornings before work.
I would study the Scriptures and allowed them to speak to me like they were coming straight from GOD
[And they do come straight from Him.]
I want to encourage you to give GOD the glory, even though you might be going through hell in your life.
Give GOD the glory whether you ride a bicycle or drive a car. Give Him the glory whether you are rich or you are poor. Give Him the glory whether you are the government or the garbage collector.
1 Thessalonians 5:18
In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of GOD in Christ JESUS concerning you.
God bless you.
